Hey all.
I used to smoke cigarettes and pipe years back, then got into vaping for health reasons. I still enjoy a pipe from time to time, but now with new laws, I can't get my hands on the vapes I want. I came across this forum, and decided to try my hand at making my own cigarettes. I got the sampler pack from WLT, and played around a bit, ended up getting a shredder and a powermatic mini. I recently ordered a few more lbs of tobacco, and I'm trying to find the perfect blend for me. I also want to get into blending pipe tobacco, but I'm not really sure what the difference is between cigarette and pipe blends. I've also got plans to stove some virginia I got, and toast some burley, since I heard it can be a bit harsh unprocessed. I'm really enjoying this hobby, and I'm glad I found a place with such a wealth of knowledge and experience.

Belated welcome to the forum. You may wish to scan through the topics in our Index of Key Forum Threads, linked in the menu bar. There are links there to free books on blending pipe tobacco.
